Using ONTAP 9.11.1 simulator created 2 node cluster on the ESXI server using OVA file. Created SVM using CIFS protocol and using the SVM created the volume using the system manager. using the LIF IPs 10.221.143.57 and 10.221.143.59 Created volume0 and this created the share \\10.221.143.57\volume0 and \\10.221.143.59\volume0. These shares are not getting created. Refer to the attached screenshot. Please let me know how to overcome this issue.

Hello, I am using a simulator running 9.12.1P11 to test the new snapshot copy locking feature (without SnapLock). It works in general, however I've run into an issue with making it work in the SnapCenter environment. We use a custom role for SnapCenter to give it the least required privileges. I need to modify the role to give it the appropriate permissions for snapshot copy locking, but I can't seem to make it work. I have a case open with NetApp, and they successfully tested a modified custom role on a standard NetApp cluster, but the same role isn't working on the simulator. This makes us wonder if there's some limitation in the simulator for either the locking feature or the custom role feature? Any ideas? KB that we based the current custom role on: https://docs.netapp.com/us-en/snapcenter/install/create-svm-roles-minimum-privileges.html KB that shows two additional command to add for SnapLock, however this didn't work on the simulator: https://kb.netapp.com/onprem/ontap/dp/SnapLock/Unable_to_set_retention_at_file_level

Hello, I am new to NetApp and the Simulator. I am running the simulator in Fusion on my Mac. I worked through the Simulate ONTAP 9.7 Installation and Setup Guide. When I try to mount a volume on the simulator onto my Mac using mount -t nfs 192.168.1.102:/volume1 /mnt/netapp, I get: mount: /mnt/netapp: invalid file system. showmount -e 192.168.1.102 returns: Exports list on 192.168.1.102: / Everyone /volume1 Everyone Any guidance or help would be appreciated.
